“After my swimming career ended, I moved onto coaching, working alongside Don Talbot at Auburn pool. My forte was our schools’ program. Over the decades I grew the largest school’s program in Australia at the time. I can’t wait to come to the grand opening and see the new aquatic centre for myself,” Ms Everuss said.

The facility is open all year round. It has a 50 metre outdoor pool, a 25 metre indoor pool, private program pool, gyms and a kids splash pad.
